Licensing for new files:

NoraUi is licensed under a GNU AGPLv3 license. Anything contributed to NoraUi must be released under this license.

When introducing a new file into the project, please make sure it has a copyright header making clear under which license it''s being released.

Developer Certificate of Origin:

To improve tracking of contributions to this project we will use a
process modeled on the modified DCO(Developer Certificate of Origin)
and use a "sign-off" procedure on patches that are being contributed.

The sign-off is a simple line at the end of the explanation for the
patch, which certifies that you wrote it or otherwise have the right
to pass it on as an open-source patch. The rules are pretty simple:
if you can certify the below:

By making a contribution to this project, I certify that:

(a) The contribution was created in whole or in part by me and I have
    the right to submit it under the open source license indicated in
    the file; or

(b) The contribution is based upon previous work that, to the best of
    my knowledge, is covered under an appropriate open source License
    and I have the right under that license to submit that work with
    modifications, whether created in whole or in part by me, under
    the same open source license (unless I am permitted to submit
    under a different license), as indicated in the file; or

(c) The contribution was provided directly to me by some other person
    who certified (a), (b) or (c) and I have not modified it.

(d) The contribution is made free of any other party''s intellectual
    property claims or rights.

(e) I understand and agree that this project and the contribution are
    public and that a record of the contribution (including all
    personal information I submit with it, including my sign-off) is
    maintained indefinitely and may be redistributed consistent with
    this project or the open source license(s) involved.


then you just add a line saying

    Signed-off-by: Random N Developer <nrandom@developer.org>

using your real name (sorry, no pseudonyms or anonymous contributions.)
